So went to the wreckers in Austin today, not the VW place but a all manufactures to get some of the parts to put together a Megasquirt 2 v3 system to drive fuel and spark. I found a trigger wheel and hall sensor from a ford ranger 4 cyl, and a Bosch oxy sensor was laying on the ground so grabbed that with a section of exhaust that had a bung on it. I have several throttle bodies but I've come to the conclusion to do individual TB from a motorcycle but use the standard manifolds and injector locations.

Has anyone done a full write-up on Megasquirt for the 914? It doesn't help to argumentate about credit if there's nothing documented...
GA, who's been waiting for someone to frontier the way to make this happen economically... |

GA, who's been waiting for someone to frontier the way to make this happen economically... I think part of the problem is that like the type 4 engines the megasquirt has many ways to do things. And with the multiple paths lend themselves to opinions and egos. Also not everyone wants to do things the same way. The newer injection systems are the future unless your an absolute purest. Parts for the D-Jet, and L-Jets are becoming more difficult to find and when you do find them there are prohibitively expensive . While I'm trying do do mine on a budget I threw the 800 dollar figure out there tongue in cheek. The simplest MS configuration is to use the stock parts ( except the MAP sensor as the MS come with one, also the throttle postion sensor has to be changed), the temp sensor in the cyl head my or may not be compatible but the MS system can be programed to except the sensors range. The MS 2 with v3 seems to me the most supported version for a type4 with a 901 transaxle. With this system you also can eliminate the distributor and use a coil pack to deliver a hotter and more accurate spark. Now I will be the first to admit I am NOT the expert but by using a laptop it is way easier to program than say a SPICA mechanical fuel injection. |
